Verdict

The So You Think gelding, DE MAZZARO appears to be improving of late and can progress from one of his career best efforts when finishing a 1¼L third of 17 at Listowel earlier this month. The Colin Bowe-trained Ya Boy Ya won a bumper here last month before a pleasing hurdle debut at Kilbeggan earlier this month can emerge as the biggest danger. Bella Cohen on debut for Willie Mullins and the Gordon Elliott-trained, Mooltazem are not to be taken lightly in a wide-open contest.
